Yet in this collection--selected by Kevin Prufer as the winner of the 2014 Lindquist \u0026amp; Vennum Prize for Poetry--Michael Bazzett slices through his poems with a dangerous sense of humor. \"Your humor is deft and cutting \/ my fingers off one by one.\" Once dismembered, Bazzett's poems can re-member us and piece together the ways in which we once thought we knew ourselves, creating a new, strange sense of self.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA meditation on who we are, who we've been, and what we might become, Bazzett's writing is like a note written in invisible ink: partially what we see on the page, but also the \"many dozen doorways that we don't walk through each day.\" \u003cem\u003eYou Must Remember This\u003c\/em\u003e is a consistently slippery, enrapturing collection of poems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael Bazzett's\u003c\/b\u003e poems have appeared in \u003ci\u003ePloughshares\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMassachusetts Review\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePleiades\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eBest New Poets\u003c\/i\u003e.
